Hey, I know you from my tiny tv sub.

Totally in agreement with your perception here. While I can see why we'd want to reward people for high-effort self posts, this really does encourage people to crap out topic after topic on a "hot" issue. I am not looking forward to what this means for my subs, particularly the ones that already require a large amount of attention.

:D Fancy seeing you here!

I don't mind it, I just think that adding some element of control is crucial. Allow the huge subs some control and smaller subs that can deal with it can leave it on. And don't just dump it on people without any warning, ffs.
